Lands below are all for cultivation of various foods, like oats or potatoes. Do you know that in Peru they have over a thousand different potato types? And the variation comes from thousands of years of experimenting with the altitude in which they are planted which allowed them to be evolved for that specific height.
This is the sacred valley built by the Incas...this was considered sacred because it had the most fertile land and access to mineral rich water from the river Urubamba
This is the area surrounding the picture of the sacred valley above, it's called Moray. And those are the Andes...I could not stop staring at them the entire trip and I'm a total city girl through and through lol
Salt mines of Maras, Peru. This is the most expensive and sought after salt in Peru because it comes from a naturally salty spring. Apparently all the best restaurants want to use this salt in their cooking because of its flavor.
